Dr. Stephen Quay does not believe President Joe Biden was only just diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer, telling The Daily Wire, &#8220;there is a mismatch between the standard of care [Biden] should have been getting, and what we&#8217;re hearing about now.&#8221;
Quay, a University of Michigan-educated doctor, author, and <a href="https://drquay.com/">renowned scientist</a>, spoke to The Daily Wire just days after the former president&#8217;s office announced that he had been diagnosed with an &#8220;aggressive form&#8221; of prostate cancer that had already metastasized to his bones. He said he&#8217;s received death threats since he began speaking out about Biden&#8217;s diagnosis, calling the experience &#8220;quite bizarre.&#8221;
But Quay made it clear that he is simply offering thoughts &#8220;based on peer-reviewed papers that address large populations.&#8221; To that end, he notes that 85 to 90% of all cases, the disease progression from localized in the prostate to advanced metastatic disease is a process that plays out &#8220;over the course of five to seven years.&#8221;
Quay made it clear that while a rapid onset of advanced disease was certainly possible, that was only the case in perhaps one or two percent of patients. He also noted the fact that Biden&#8217;s cancer is &#8220;hormone sensitive&#8221; could potentially explain the former president&#8217;s physical and cognitive decline.
&#8220;The standard treatment would be to deprive the body of testosterone through <a href="https://www.cancer.org/cancer/types/prostate-cancer/treating/hormone-therapy.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Androgen Deprivation Therapy,&#8221;</a> Quay said. For a man of Biden&#8217;s age, such a precipitous drop in testosterone could lead patients to lose muscle tone and become noticeably weaker.
&#8220;Out of 100 men, nearly 40% will have a serious fall within six to 12 months of ADT treatment,&#8221; he said, adding that another common side effect had to do with patients seeing cognitive issues.
&#8220;Some of that will be self-reported, where they just notice that maybe they&#8217;re not as sharp as they have been in the past,&#8221; Quay said, also noting that the people around the patient might also notice cognitive decline even when the patient himself did not.
While Quay said that he had no knowledge of whether Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/doctors-raise-questions-about-timing-of-biden-cancer-diagnosis-unbelievable-this-was-missed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">knew of his diagnosis</a> prior to his office&#8217;s public announcement, he said that it was possible that the former president&#8217;s noticeably awkward gait and obvious cognitive issues were side effects of the standard treatment for his cancer.
If that were the case, he added, he could understand why someone in Biden&#8217;s position might have made a &#8220;calculated decision&#8221; not to release the information to the public.
&#8220;He might have not had the cognitive issues when he decided to go ahead with a campaign,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s true that he probably couldn’t be elected with cancer or cognitive issues, so at some point, he would have to make a calculated decision whether or not to tell people. But to speak to whether or not that was the right course of action, I stop being a doctor with an opinion and start being a voter with an opinion — and that’s fine as long as I can keep them compartmentalized.&#8221;
A Biden spokesman has said that <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe-biden/joe-biden-psa-screening-2014-prostate-cancer-rcna208120" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nothing was hidden</a> from the public and that the former president did not receive his prostate cancer diagnosis until last Friday. The spokesman also said Biden&#8217;s last known prostate cancer screening — called a Prostate Specific Antigen test — was in 2014.
Quay discussed the efficacy of PSAs in an X post shortly after Biden&#8217;s diagnosis was made public.
&#8220;Prostate cancer is the easiest cancer to diagnose when it first starts and to watch it progress to bone metastases,&#8221; he wrote.
&#8220;The PSA blood test shows the rate of cancer cell growth. For even with the most aggressive form, it is a 5-7 year journey without treatment before it becomes metastatic. Meaning, it would be malpractice for this patient to show up and be first diagnosed with metastatic disease in May 2025. It is highly likely he was carrying a diagnosis of prostate cancer throughout his White House tenure and the American people were uninformed.&#8221;

&#8220;If you can believe what they say, that it is hormone sensitive, that means that it would be detectable in PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) levels,&#8221; he said, noting that PSA testing is not always recommended after age 69, but that for someone in Biden&#8217;s position it seemed unwise not to go ahead with the test.
&#8220;There is a mismatch between the standard of care that he should have been getting and what we’re hearing about now.&#8221;

Jake Tapper scrambled to respond when confronted directly over his new book — written with Axios reporter Alex Thompson — and the assertion that any &#8220;cover-up&#8221; of former President Joe Biden&#8217;s obvious cognitive and physical decline would only have been possible with the help of journalists.
Tapper and Thompson&#8217;s book, &#8220;Original Sin,&#8221; details Biden&#8217;s decline and his decision to run again despite that – and Tapper struggled to defend the fact that he, like many others in media, had failed to report on what was obvious to so many in Right-leaning media and to the American people.
Tapper was ultimately forced to admit that the conservative journalists — who&#8217;d been reporting on Biden&#8217;s obvious impairment for months, if not years — had been right all along.
&#8220;Alex and I are here to say the conservative media was right and conservative media was correct and that there should be a lot of soul-searching, not just among me, but among the legacy media to begin with, all of us, for how this was covered or not covered sufficiently 100 percent,&#8221; he said.

<script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script>
The admission came during an interview with Sirius XM host Megyn Kelly, who said Biden&#8217;s decline was &#8220;obvious&#8221; to the actually curious media.
&#8220;Over here in my ecosphere, we were covering all of these things,&#8221; Sirius XM host Megyn Kelly began. &#8220;It wasn&#8217;t just falling down, it was getting lost. It was some of the stuff you report in your book, we knew and we were reporting on. Like the multi jump-cuts in the videos of him, where it was obvious he couldn&#8217;t get through a one minute take.&#8221;
&#8220;It was clear to us that he was using a teleprompter, and there was some reporting on that at the time — all of which the White House was denying,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;Now, the current White House, I have some connections. With the Joe Biden White House, I had none — but you did. There was an attempted cover-up. It could only ever work if you allowed it, if the press allowed it. Some of us tried not to and some of us were complicit.&#8221;
Tapper pushed back then, saying that the Biden White House had not been terribly fond of him either — but Kelly argued that he&#8217;d gotten some 200 people in Biden&#8217;s orbit to talk to him for the book. Tapper noted that they spoke to him after the election, but Kelly said that he could have &#8220;called and worked&#8221; them before that.
&#8220;No, that&#8217;s the point, they were not being honest,&#8221; Tapper protested. &#8220;That&#8217;s the point.&#8221;
&#8220;Well, how did The Wall Street Journal get it in June of 2024?&#8221; Kelly asked. &#8220;And Jake Tapper and CNN couldn&#8217;t find sources for this story then, before he dropped out?&#8221;
Tapper noted that he&#8217;d had the reporters who broke the story for the WSJ — Annie Linskey and Siobhan Hughes — on his show to discuss their reporting after the debate he&#8217;d hosted alongside Dana Bash. However, he was forced to admit the fact that he didn&#8217;t have them on when the story broke – and had instead had them on after Biden&#8217;s disastrous debate performance.
Tapper claimed that he was &#8220;sure&#8221; he&#8217;d wanted to have them on when the story broke, but that he wasn&#8217;t aware of what the &#8220;booking situation&#8221; was at the time. Kelly noted that he&#8217;d instead booked a Democrat who spent the time smearing the WSJ report as propaganda from Rupert Murdoch.
&#8220;If we&#8217;re going to do this, let&#8217;s stick to the facts here, okay?&#8221; Tapper said.
&#8220;Jake, I&#8217;ve — that&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve been doing all along,&#8221; Kelly shot back. &#8220;One of us didn&#8217;t miss the story of the century when it comes to presidential politics, and one of us did.&#8221;

Jake Tapper Flails When Confronted With His Role In Biden Cover-Up

Media

A CNN panel discussion went off the rails on Monday as Democratic strategist Julie Roginsky refused to address a question about former President Joe Biden&#8217;s obvious cognitive and physical decline — and the lengths to which his White House went to cover that up — without pivoting to complain about current President Donald Trump.
As the panel discussed Biden&#8217;s term in the White House — in the context of &#8220;Original Sin,&#8221; the book written by CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson — Roginsky repeatedly interrupted to shoehorn in her issues with President Trump, demanding several times that he should be made to submit to a cognitive test in spite of the fact that he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/i-got-every-answer-right-trump-swipes-at-biden-after-annual-physical" target="_blank" rel="noopener">already has</a>.

Republican commentator Scott Jennings sparked a reaction from her when he asked whether she was defending Biden&#8217;s time in the White House and saying that he was &#8220;fine&#8221; during that time.
&#8220;Are you arguing the Joe Biden was fine during his term?&#8221; Jennings asked.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not arguing that he was fine, I&#8217;m arguing that Donald Trump —&#8221; Roginsky said.
&#8220;You keep pivoting back to Trump, who&#8217;s clearly fine,&#8221; Jennings pushed back. &#8220;I&#8217;m just asking you if you&#8217;re arguing that something was not wrong with Joe Biden.&#8221;
&#8220;But let me ask you — let me ask you a question,&#8221; Roginsky continued. &#8220;Scott, I&#8217;m so glad you asked that question. Because Joe Biden&#8217;s no longer the president.&#8221;
&#8220;But he was, and that&#8217;s the story tonight,&#8221; Jennings pointed out.
&#8220;Donald Trump — Donald Trump —&#8221; Roginsky protested. &#8220;Well, no, actually, stop. Stop! Stop! Let me finish, let me finish what I&#8217;m saying. Let me finish something. Donald Trump is the President of the United States. I would dearly love to see a cognitive test from him, because as somebody who&#8217;s lived in the New York media market for the last forty years, I can tell you, that the Donald Trump that I knew in the 80s is not the Donald Trump that I hear today.&#8221;
&#8220;So your answer to the cover-up is &#8216;Trump,'&#8221; Jennings prompted.
&#8220;My answer is —&#8221; Roginsky began.
From Jennings: &#8220;No, your answer to every question is &#8216;Trump.&#8217; The cover-up is the story tonight.&#8221;
&#8220;My answer is the president — yes, the cover-up is also the President of the United States, who happens to be Donald J. Trump today, is not – yeah, you could laugh all you want — you know why you&#8217;re laughing? Because you don&#8217;t —&#8221;
At that point, Jennings spliced in a clip of actor Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy for effect: &#8220;We are laughing!&#8221;
&#8220;No, no, no, we&#8217;re not laughing. You don&#8217;t want to answer the question, Scott,&#8221; she complained.

Naomi Biden lashed out at the forthcoming book from CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson — which explores the extent of her grandfather&#8217;s obvious cognitive and physical decline while in the White House — and claimed it amounted to little more than &#8220;uninspired lies.&#8221;
Naomi, whose father is Biden&#8217;s embattled son Hunter Biden, responded to a post on X that claimed Tapper and Thompson were publishing the book in an effort to make themselves the &#8220;center of attention&#8221; — and that they would be better served to focus on President Donald Trump and his &#8220;daily assaults on our constitution.&#8221;

&#8220;Just read a copy of this silly book, and if anyone is curious for a review from someone who lived it first-hand: this book is political fairy smut for the permanent, professional chattering class,&#8221; Naomi Biden wrote in response. &#8220;The ones who rarely enter the arena, but profit from the spectacle of those that do.&#8221;
&#8220;Put simply, it amounts to a bunch of unoriginal, uninspired lies written by irresponsible self promoting journalists out to make a quick buck,&#8221; she complained. &#8220;It relies on unnamed, anonymous sources pushing a self-serving false narrative that absolves them of any responsibility for our current national nightmare. All of this at the expense of a man so completely good and honest that it is impossible for these people to ever understand the why or how of it all. There are real stories to be told and one day they will be. I suspect history will reward the truth.&#8221;
The book, set for release on May 20, will hit shelves just two days after the former president&#8217;s office announced that he was diagnosed with an &#8220;aggressive form&#8221; of prostate cancer that had already metastasized to his bones. That announcement led to some — even some who had been critical of Biden&#8217;s fitness and his decision to run again in 2024 — to say that perhaps he should be left alone.
David Axelrod, who served as chief campaign strategist to former President Barack Obama, said that the conversation about Biden&#8217;s cognitive fitness &#8220;should be more muted and set aside for now as he’s struggling through this.&#8221;

Naomi Biden Trashes Book On Her Grandfather’s Cognitive Decline: ‘Uninspired Lies’

Naomi Biden Trashes Book On Her Grandfather's Cognitive Decline: 'Uninspired Lies'

With just days to go before the release of &#8220;Original Sin&#8221; — a book exploring former President Joe Biden&#8217;s obvious cognitive decline from Jake Tapper (CNN) and Alex Thompson (Axios) — everyone on the Sunday political shows was talking about Biden, who knew what, and when they knew it.
For those who don&#8217;t spend their Sunday mornings glued to the television — and their Sunday afternoons attempting to dig through a week&#8217;s worth of network and cable news media spin — The Daily Wire has compiled a short summary of what you may have missed.
If one were to simply watch those interviews cold, not having lived through four years of a Biden presidency or seen dozens of speeches and interviews even from midway through his single term, one might be inclined to believe the pundits and elected Democrats when they insisted that Biden was absolutely fine at least until his disaster of a televised debate with President Donald Trump — and, according to at least one, he might even still be fine.
But Democrats and pundits said those things to an audience made up of Americans who did watch Biden as he repeatedly got lost on stage, tripped up the stairs of Air Force One, alternately shouted and whispered at awkward times, and lost his train of thought on a regular basis. Still, they committed to the narrative — Biden was definitely at his best until maybe the debate, and there was no reason for anyone to suggest otherwise or believe that anyone was covering up Biden&#8217;s condition.
On ABC&#8217;s &#8220;This Week,&#8221; Rep. Ro Khanna insisted that there was no cover-up, but also said that the people who had been closest to President Biden during the last year or so of his presidency owed the American people &#8220;an explanation — but he did not clarify why they needed to explain if they were not covering anything up.
&#8220;It’s painfully obvious President Biden should not have run,&#8221; Khanna said.

Spin Cycle: The Fix Is In, And There Was No Fix

ABC News

CBS News

NBC News

Democrats, left-leaning pundits, and legacy media outlets are all talking about the &#8220;bombshells&#8221; included in Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson&#8217;s forthcoming book on the last days of the Biden campaign, &#8220;Original Sin.&#8221;
Tapper, a CNN anchor, and Thompson, an Axios reporter, interviewed more than 200 people to catalogue Biden&#8217;s obvious cognitive and physical decline, and the lengths to which the people around him went to cover it up.
But while the book certainly seems to contain previously unknown details, many don&#8217;t seem to be &#8220;bombshells&#8221; to the average American who watched President Joe Biden stumble his way through his re-election campaign.
Here are the &#8220;bombshells.&#8221;
<h3>Biden&#8217;s staff considered the possibility that he might need a wheelchair.</h3>
Biden&#8217;s halting gait was the topic of much conversation among his critics, and according to &#8220;Original Sin,&#8221; it was a concern discussed at length by his staffers. The consensus was that he might <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bidens-team-considered-putting-him-in-a-wheelchair-if-he-won-in-2024-new-book-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">need a wheelchair,</a> but with him still on the ballot at the time, they worried about the optics of taking that step prior to the 2024 election.
&#8220;Biden’s physical deterioration — most apparent in his halting walk — had become so severe that there were internal discussions about putting the president in a wheelchair, but they couldn’t do so until after the election,&#8221; Tapper and Thompson wrote.
Biden&#8217;s physician, Dr. Kevin O&#8217;Connor, had also privately conveyed his concerns that the president could eventually take a fall that would make a wheelchair a necessity rather than an option.
In order to minimize the risk, Biden&#8217;s team made sure that the president wore shoes that were made for stability and had him board and disembark from Air Force One using the shorter staircase at the rear of the plane.
Still, according to Axios, O&#8217;Connor did not believe that Biden&#8217;s team was doing enough to safeguard the president: &#8220;O’Connor sometimes quipped that Biden’s staff members were trying to kill him, while he was trying to keep him alive.&#8221;
And when anyone asked about his gait or the fact that he&#8217;d switched to the short stairs, Biden&#8217;s team brushed aside concerns by claiming that his halting step was simply the result of his refusal to wear the walking boot long enough after fracturing his foot in November of 2020.
<h3>Biden failed to recognize his friend — and host — George Clooney at his 2024 Hollywood fundraiser.</h3>
Biden had a long history of flubbing the names of people at large events. But Tapper and Thompson wrote that he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/behind-the-scenes-book-reveals-the-extensive-hollywood-magic-that-couldnt-save-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">failed to recognize</a> the Oscar-winning actor — with whom he&#8217;s been friends for years — when he approached him at a Hollywood fundraiser in June of 2024.
<blockquote>“You know George,” the assisting aide told the President, gently reminding him who was in front of him. “Yeah, yeah,” the President said to one of the most recognizable men in the world, the host of this lucrative fund-raiser.
“Thank you for being here.”
“Hi, Mr. President,” Clooney said.
“How are ya?” the President replied.
“How was your trip?” Clooney asked.
“It was fine,” the President said.
It seemed clear that the President had not recognized Clooney.
“It was not O.K.,” recalled the Hollywood V.I.P. who had witnessed this moment. “That thing, the moment where you recognize someone you know—especially a famous person who’s doing a f***ing fund-raiser for you — it was delayed. It was uncomfortable.”</blockquote>
Biden ultimately had to be reminded that the man standing in front of him was George Clooney.
<h3>Biden was hidden from his own staffers and cabinet members since at least 2023.</h3>
One staffer, who reportedly quit after Biden insisted on pushing ahead with a campaign for reelection, told Tapper and Thompson that access to Biden was strictly limited in order to keep people from seeing just how dramatic a change had taken place.
&#8220;We attempted to shield him from his own staff so many people didn’t realize the extent of the decline beginning in 2023,&#8221; the staffer said. &#8220;I love Joe Biden. When it comes to decency, there are few in politics like him. Still, it was a disservice to the country and to the party for his family and advisers to allow him to run again.&#8221;
&#8220;When he proved incapable of delivering a two-minute video address without stumbling, aides filmed him with two cameras so the edit would be less obvious,&#8221; another staffer said.
The White House Press Corps&#8217; already-limited access to Biden was diminished even further, and reports circulated that he hadn&#8217;t met with certain members of his own cabinet in weeks or even months.
Full cabinet meetings, which had been few and far between from the word go, spread out to the point that Biden would hold only three in 2023 and one in 2024.
&#8220;We spoke with several cabinet secretaries for the book, and this period of time is what one of the secretaries called ‘The Weird Period,'&#8221; Jake Tapper said.
&#8220;Despite the earlier praise, the third cabinet secretary we spoke with told us that starting in 2023, quote, ‘For months we didn’t have access to him. There was clearly a deliberate strategy by the White House to have him meet with as few people as necessary,&#8221; Tapper continued, noting that very few of Biden&#8217;s cabinet secretaries met with the president after late 2023.
&#8220;And it was not just cabinet members who were kept away from the president. Aides who had once seen Biden regularly say they went months without seeing him. Others told us that in some meetings, Biden would mumble incoherently, something the public only got glimpses of,&#8221; he said.
If the assertions made in the book — and by other reporters, pundits, and high-ranking Democrats — are to be believed, the White House did such a good job of hiding Biden&#8217;s infirmity from all but his closest advisers that none of them were truly aware of how bad things had gotten until the CNN debate.
<h3>Stay tuned for Part II: Are these really &#8220;bombshells&#8221;?</h3>

President Biden Speaks To The Department Of Labor

Legacy Media Outlets Say Biden Book Is Full Of ‘Bombshells’. Here’s What You Need To Know.

Legacy Media Outlets Say Biden Book Is Full Of 'Bombshells': Here's What To Know.

As more and more &#8220;bombshells&#8221; drop about former President Joe Biden&#8217;s last days in office — many coming from the soon-to-be-released &#8220;Original Sin,&#8221; written by CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson — one question has remained top of mind especially for critics of the last administration: &#8220;Who was running the country?&#8221;
Revelations from the book thus far have included, among other things, claims from Biden&#8217;s cabinet members that they were actively kept from meeting with him — claims that appear substantiated by the fact that he only held three full cabinet meetings in 2023 and one in 2024. Tapper and Thompson were also told that Biden failed to recognize his longtime friend — and host — actor George Clooney at a Hollywood fundraiser.
The more evidence piles up, the more critics ask: if Biden was clearly incapable of finishing the 2024 presidential race, then how could anyone say he was still capable of serving as president? And if he was incapable of serving as president, &#8220;who was running the country?&#8221; And, on a related note, where was Vice President Kamala Harris?
&#8220;Dems/media still missing the story on Biden. Yes, it&#8217;s bad that you guys lied about his health. But it&#8217;s amazing that nobody is asking WHO WAS RUNNING THE COUNTRY FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS, because it was clearly not the guy we elected. We had a soft coup,&#8221; one person posted, noting that legacy media outlets seemed wholly uninterested in that story.

Opinion

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) refused to answer a question from CNN anchor Kasie Hunt about former President Joe Biden&#8217;s obvious cognitive decline, saying instead that he was &#8220;looking forward&#8221; and changing the subject to attack President Donald Trump.
In the context of the forthcoming book &#8220;Original Sin&#8221; — which explores Biden&#8217;s decline and the lengths to which the people around him went to cover it up — Hunt asked Schumer a question that essentially boiled down to the classic &#8220;what did you know, and when did you know it?&#8221;

&#8220;I really do want to ask you about something that has been breaking out of CNN, our Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson have written a book called &#8216;Original Sin&#8217; and they call it a cover-up of Biden&#8217;s health and his cognition and his fitness, quite frankly, to be President of the United States,&#8221; Hunt began, and she noted that Schumer had met with Biden on a number of occasions in the months leading up to the disastrous debate on CNN in late June.
&#8220;Did you really not have any idea that he was not fit to serve a second term?&#8221; she asked.
&#8220;Kasie, we&#8217;re looking forward,&#8221; Schumer replied. &#8220;We have the largest Medicaid cut in front of us, we have the whole federal government at risk —&#8221;
Hunt interrupted then, reminding Schumer that the entire premise of the book was that Biden&#8217;s apparent lack of fitness — and his insistence upon running anyway — may be the reason Democrats were dealing with a second term under President Donald Trump.
&#8220;We&#8217;re looking forward,&#8221; Schumer said again, making it clear that he had no intention whatsoever of addressing her question.
According to the book, Schumer actually <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamalas-team-tosses-biden-under-the-bus-blames-him-for-2024-loss" target="_blank" rel="noopener">met with Biden</a> in Rehoboth Beach after the debate in June, warning him that if he did not choose to exit the presidential race gracefully, he was likely to lose to Trump and sully 50 years of public service.

Chuck Schumer Won’t Say When He Knew Biden Was Unfit To Serve

Chuck Schumer

Aides who worked for former Vice President Kamala Harris — particularly those close to her failed 2024 presidential bid — have come forward to throw former President Joe Biden under the bus, claiming that he is to blame for her loss to President Donald Trump.
The new accusations were fully explored in the upcoming book from CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios&#8217; Alex Thompson: &#8220;Original Sin: President Biden&#8217;s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,&#8221; as noted in a report from <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/12/biden-harris-david-plouffe-book" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Guardian</a>. A number of those close to Harris asserted that Biden was ultimately responsible for the Democrats&#8217; failure to retain the White House.
David Plouffe, who managed former President Barack Obama&#8217;s 2008 campaign, told authors Tapper and Thompson that Biden &#8220;totally f***ed us&#8221; by staying in the 2024 campaign until late July, leaving Harris just over 100 days — 107, to be exact — to mount a campaign against President Donald Trump.
Plouffe referred to the abbreviated campaign as &#8220;a f***ing nightmare,&#8221; adding, &#8220;It&#8217;s all Biden.&#8221;
Plouffe recalled taking phone calls from donors who were concerned about Biden&#8217;s speech patterns or his uneven gait, but when he asked the White House and Biden&#8217;s closest advisers whether the president was capable of seeing the 2024 campaign through, he was always told that Biden was fine.
There were others who agreed with Plouffe, including one Democratic strategist who told Tapper and Thompson, &#8220;[The 2024 campaign] was an abomination. He stole an election from the Democratic party; he stole it from the American people.&#8221;
Another senior aide who remained anonymous — and who ultimately quit his position in the Biden White House over the president&#8217;s decision to seek reelection, admitted, &#8220;We attempted to shield him from his own staff so many people didn’t realize the extent of the decline beginning in 2023.&#8221;
&#8220;I love Joe Biden. When it comes to decency, there are few in politics like him,&#8221; the aide said. &#8220;Still, it was a disservice to the country and to the party for his family and advisers to allow him to run again.&#8221;
Even Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer reportedly warned Biden to get out if he wanted to preserve any part of his legacy, meeting with the president at his Rehoboth Beach home shortly after the disastrous CNN debate in late June.
Schumer told Biden that if he remained on the ticket and lost, half a century of &#8220;amazing, beautiful work goes out the window. But it’s worse than that – you will go down in American history as one of the darkest figures.&#8221;
Biden, according to the book, replied to Schumer, &#8220;You have bigger balls than anyone I’ve ever met.&#8221;
Despite that, it was nearly a full month before Biden dropped out of the race on July 21.

Former President Joe Biden&#8217;s team considered the possibility that they might have to put him in a wheelchair if he won re-election in 2024, the upcoming book &#8220;Original Sin&#8221; claims.
<a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/05/13/biden-book-wheelchair-2024-campaign-original-sin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to the book</a> from CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios&#8217; Alex Thompson, information given to the American people about then-President Biden&#8217;s physical condition was often at odds with evaluations from his personal physician.
&#8220;Biden&#8217;s physical deterioration — most apparent in his halting walk — had become so severe that there were internal discussions about putting the president in a wheelchair, but they couldn&#8217;t do so until after the election,&#8221; Tapper and Thompson wrote.
Biden&#8217;s physician suggested that a wheelchair might be necessary – especially if the president were to fall at any point — because his age and condition could prolong recovery.
&#8220;Given Biden&#8217;s age, [his physician Kevin O&#8217;Connor] also privately said that if he had another bad fall, a wheelchair might be necessary for what could be a difficult recovery,&#8221; the book reads.
Biden&#8217;s team did show concerns that he could fall, and took precautions such as using the shorter staircase from Air Force One and having the president wear shoes that were made for better stability.
Still, according to the book, O&#8217;Connor often felt as though Biden&#8217;s aides were not doing enough to make sure that he was taking proper precautions and getting enough rest.
&#8220;O&#8217;Connor sometimes quipped that Biden&#8217;s staff members were trying to kill him, while he was trying to keep him alive,&#8221; Axios reported.
Another instance that showed O&#8217;Connor and Biden&#8217;s team in conflict was the aftermath of a 2020 fall in which Biden fractured his foot. After the president wore a walking boot for more than two months, O&#8217;Connor announced that &#8220;both small fractures of his foot are completely healed&#8221; and that &#8220;this injury has healed as expected.&#8221;
But throughout 2024, as critics increasingly noticed the president&#8217;s awkward gait, aides claimed that his halting step resulted from his refusal to wear the boot long enough when he&#8217;d been recovering from the fractures in his foot. &#8220;In short, they said, Biden was being undone by his own vigor,&#8221; Axios reported.
Biden&#8217;s team has responded to early reports from the book, saying, &#8220;So far, we are still waiting for someone, anyone, to point out where Joe Biden had to make a presidential decision or make a presidential address where he was unable to do his job because of mental decline. In fact, the evidence points to the opposite — he was a very effective president.&#8221;

Axios reporter Alex Thompson was recognized on Saturday by the White House Correspondents Association, receiving the Aldo Beckman Award for Overall Excellence for his work in exposing how President Joe Biden&#8217;s &#8220;cognitive decline was impacting his ability to do his job — information the White House tried to conceal.&#8221;
Moderator and host of NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; Kristen Welker presented the award to Thompson — who co-authored a book on Biden&#8217;s decline with CNN anchor Jake Tapper — prompting critics to point out the fact that Biden&#8217;s decline had been obvious long before his disastrous CNN debate against President Donald Trump and long before Thompson published a single report on the topic.

&#8220;President Biden&#8217;s decline and its coverup by the people around him is a reminder that every White House regardless of party is capable of deception. But being truth tellers also means telling the truth about ourselves. We, myself included, missed a lot of this story and some people trust us less because of it,&#8221; Thompson said, suggesting that the blame for the coverup lay entirely with the Biden administration and that the press had been in the dark.
&#8220;We bear some responsibility for faith in the media being at such lows,&#8221; Thompson conceded, adding that honesty was required in order to rebuild trust. He went on to say that was doubly important because in the current climate, &#8220;people are struggling to figure out what&#8217;s true, and people with power are not telling the truth.&#8221;

&#8220;@kwelkernbc you all didn’t &#8216;miss&#8217; the story. You consciously chose to cover it up. The latter is much worse and one of many reasons you’ve completely lost public trust,&#8221; another posted.

&#8220;It. Wasn’t. &#8216;Deception.&#8217; YEARS before Alex hitched his wagon to Jake Tapper to sell books, I wrote entire one in 2022 on Biden’s brain turning to applesauce. Enough of this ridiculous narrative already of the press playing the victim of being deceived. YOU ALL KNEW,&#8221; Joe Concha declared.
